A different interpretion is that Wash U is more difficult to get into, more prestigious, and more competitive.

WashUs test scores are higher than most ivy's, that's not a knock against Emory that WashU are stat whorish. Emorys 25th percentile is 1400 higher than Georgetown etc.

Yet is not the same. It has its own admissions office and it's own academic charter. Do you include Barnard with Columbia admissions numbers? Is Barnard not a key part of Columbia?

But don’t all Oxford students matriculate to Emory after 2 years?

No some Transfer out, some drop out etc. Most do yes.

Of course you should, striver.

Shut up.

I went to Wash. U. and really liked it. Business school students double majored in Arts & Sciences subjects all the time. I don’t know anything about how flexible Emory is. If it’s less flexible, maybe that would give the edge to Wash. U.

If they’re both about as flexible, maybe Emory would be better, because it would probably offer easier access to internship opportunities.

You tried but failed. The first interpretation is correct as both unis have the same overall acceptance rate but WashU has a much higher ED rate. That doesn't sound very prestigious to me, more like gaming the system and taking the vast majority of the class ED. Very Tulane-esque is you ask me. Only a deluded snake thinks something like that is admirable.

Well, calling anyone a snake makes you a poor representative of your college. This says it all:

Emory- 1400-1510/31-34
WashU- 1480-1560/ 33-35

That's a fairly large difference.

And if Emory wanted higher stats it could do that as well. Just be less diverse and admit more high stat students ED. That's clearly what WashU is doing.

Maybe that's what Emory should do. People on DCU would respect it more. They only care about the numbers here.

General population thinks Washington University is in Washington State.

Does that matter to your DC?

You think a prestigious grad school or organization isn’t going to recognize Wash U on an application (where the address of the school would be given)? Other than those two situations—applying for grad school or job—why would it matter?

No, Emory fills 40% via ED (you shouldn’t include the Oxford admits in the Emory pool).

According to this site, they both fill 60 percent of their slots via ED...

Emory is a lot more diverse racially and socioeconomically. Approximately 40% of students at Emory are white vs approximately 50% at WashU. And while the NYT stats on median family income are about 6 years old now, it lists WashU at $272k (2nd highest in country) vs $140k at Emory.
